A Trade

I’m starting to realize that I have a marketable trade. It isn’t a new skill of mine, but it is one that I’m just now starting to exploit. It is, of course, web design. I don’t fancy myself much of a designer, and I have no graphical skills to speak of, but I know what makes a good website, and I know my way around WordPress. I have recently, or am still in the process of, bartering redesigned websites for a wood stove, music (concerts and songs), and a custom hood ornament. I get the feeling this is only the beginning. It’s easy for me to do, and make a huge impact on the people I do it for. I’m making sure I pace myself – I don’t want to kill my love of it and turn it into a job.
